As it will always be, when real important deals are negotiated under a
deadline that was known in advance. 

David is right. The "fait accompli" atmosphere around the Verisign/NSI
deal, commentators and Wall Streets' reaction and all that is a bit
disturbing.

There is no question that there is angst and anger.
One loose remark about ICANN going to restrict .org again and insufficient
reassurance about rights of existing Domains is sparking  a fury of
hundreds of postings to the ICANN public forum.

This has reached the press as well.


 here's a substantive question:  
What guarantee will ICANN give the Individual Registrants in .org that
their existing Domains will not be affected by the change in Registry
management?
